Just to keep me standin' here
To secure your shaky fears
Tell me you love me, but in your heart you know you don't
So you lie 'cause you think I want
To make believe you love when you don't
Lead me on, lead me on
Lead me on, lead me on
I'll play along and along and along
Baby lead me on
Lead me on
Pretend it's rainin' when the tears flow from my eyes
And you're warm when you're cold as ice
And everything's gonna be alright
And it's a shame, little Johnn wears my name
And you know I'm not the one
Still you say he is my son
Chorus
And when I leave to go work for you
You cry you're lonely too
To make me feel your love is true
But in your dreams you slip and tell it all
I hear you calling out his name
You say you love him loud and plain
Chorus
Tell me anything you think I wanna hear Just to keep me standin' here To secure your shaky fears Tell me you love me, but in your heart you know you don't So you lie 'cause you think I want To make believe you love when you don't Lead me on, lead me on Lead me on, lead me on I'll play along and along and along Baby lead me on Lead me on Pretend it's rainin' when the tears flow from my eyes And you're warm when you're cold as ice And everything's gonna be alright And it's a shame, little Johnn wears my name And you know I'm not the one Still you say he is my son Chorus And when I leave to go work for you You cry you're lonely too To make me feel your love is true But in your dreams you slip and tell it all I hear you calling out his name You say you love him loud and plain Chorus Explain Request ×
